shared library internet. I am glad to have the resource available at all, but the waiting, the tapping, the lack of 'nography, the slowness of the connection, the other weirdos... this sucks.

Even thou it’ll drive you crazy at times you’ll prob like it betta then Wally World (or maybe not)? Either way you had to drive to staple breaks most of the time, maybe not a buck in a half and change, but still….. Weather’s usually better. Surfs a little better on the NoCo too. IMO. Flexibility w/ work and fam is key thou. Good luck.

yeah... we'll see. our PDX rental fell through, may be lookin' at Sublimity/Stayton? Who knows. Dual income will be a nice change after the last 7 years, that's for shizzle.

Speel, lots of empty real estate in the HV......usually that equals cheap rentals.

Come rent the McMansion up the road from me....

been abusing a 6'7" stretch for 3yrs, but it's still in great shape. far as i knew (like quad head said) he only uses marko foam wrapped in epoxy. curious why you think yours isn't epoxy?

I stand corrected...
However it isn't that heinous shiny epoxy looking type board...
But yes, epoxy resin in traditional poly style construction...
Although I could continue to be wrong.

As a know-it-all I need to mention...

You can give any board construction method that "heinous shiny epoxy" look by adding opaque pigment. Check out surfy surfy for the odd example. Both boards I've made were epoxy over PU one clear and one tinted yellow and they look exactly like a traditional resin board (except they don't ding. If you whack them really hard the laminate kind of tears in an easy to repair kind of way).
